“Welcome to Gothic Land” is a video podcast created by Alice in Gothic Land. It's a place where we analyze the psychology behind Gothic productions and elements so we can find our balance. I help you find equilibrium during transitions by analyzing literary works, television programs, songs, and other artistic representations. In other words, an analysis of Gothic psychology.

What if Gothic isn't just a style, but a language of the soul? In this video, we explore how Gothic space can offer a symbolic refuge and a means of communication between neurotypical and neurodivergent individuals. Through a Jungian and aesthetic reading, we discover that the human mind, like a Gothic cathedral, is made of light and shadow, broken arches, and imperfect beauty.

🔮 In this episode, we reflect on:

• Why we need a new language to talk about difference.

• Why gothic can be a refuge and a mirror for your own otherness.

• How to see neurodivergence as your gothic journey.

• How to normalize difference without erasing the shadow.

• Why we need a gothic psychology that doesn't pathologize, but understands.

In Episode 19, “Halloween Hangover: Interview with Margaret Bell”, I discuss the trauma of seasonal transitioning with Margaret Bell, a certified thanatologist and coach on bereavement, loss and grief. We talk about our grief as content creators and connect it to the collective unconscious as we talk about how celebrations affect us. We address the importance of allowing ourselves to mourn when others are happy, to sit with our feelings and to connect with seasons by looking at our cultural and historical ancestry.

In this video, we explore why we need a Gothic Psychology.

From a Jungian perspective, the Gothic is not just an aesthetic or a literary genre —it’s a language of the unconscious, a symbolic mirror of our fears, desires, and inner transformations.

Through examples like Sandman and the symbolic language of dreams, we’ll see how the Gothic helps us approach the hidden aspects of the psyche —those that a purely rational worldview tends to exclude.
